Wire twisters are surgical instruments designed to twist surgical wire after application to tighten loops or bindings, with the surgeon inserting loose wire ends into the device's jaws and pulling a handle that spins a spirally grooved centre piece to twist and tighten the wire. These hand-held instruments are used in orthodontics to twist wire.
